Download gparted to your Ubuntu system and run it. It is a partition
program that can resize things for you.

reinstall so it won't run out of space and crash. When I try
reinstalling, will it create the partitions I want or will I need to do
it myself before the installation?

Partition size is a matter of personal preference, combined with what
you'll be using it for, as wel as the minimum requirements of a system.
For example, I think Windows 7 needs at least 20 GB of space, or some
other surprisingly large amount.
